Minister’s Blog

In a
recent interview, Erling Kagge was talking about his love of walking. He has
walked to both poles and climbed Everest. He has navigated the sewers in New
York and walked the length and breadth of LA. It took four days.

Many
creative thinkers were also avid walkers – the Greek philosophers, the romantic
composers, Darwin and Dickens. The scientists have confirmed a causal
relationship between walking and creativity. ‘We think with our entire bodies,’ said Kagge.

‘When we move the body, we also move our
thoughts, our emotions, everything frees up and circulate.’ he
continued. ‘It’s good to think when you
walk but it’s even better not to. That’s when you find answers to questions you
didn’t even know you had.’
